2. Going to the gym (I'm going to list down a few, I don't go to the gym so I don't know the workouts you do there so I researched about the workouts you do at the gym and here is the list, I don't think it's all of them, I think I'm missing a few but this is the list for now)
  • Lat pull down
  • Horizontal seated leg press
  • Cable biceps bar
  • Chest press
  • Treadmill
  • Weightlifting
  • Hanging leg raise
  • Cardio: rowing machine
3. Yoga (This is the list of yoga workouts, I also researched yoga workouts because I don't do yoga and there's probably a lot missing)
  • Child's pose 
  • Downward facing dog
  • Ragdoll
  • High plank
  • Chaturanga push-ups
  • Push-ups
  • Upward facing dog
  • Weighted squats
  • Lunges
4. Drinking protein shake (I only put a few ones but there are a variety of protein shakes you can find near your place)
  • Banana protein shake (a DIY one)
  • Whey 
  • Casein
  • Egg
  • Soy
  • Pea
  • Rice

5. Eating healthy food (Vegetable and Fruits)

A person who is a good role model for being physically active 
  • Manny Pacquiao - He is a Famous Filipino boxer and also Senator, he does running, battle ropes, plyometrics, shadow-boxing, sparring, heavy bag and speed bag training, crunches and Russian twists. According to this site Link
  • BTS (A Korean boy-band group that's really famous now, they're my absolute favourite, I'm an ARMY) They might just be an idol but all the member are really good at dancing. It takes a lot of time and hard-work to practise dance, especially when there are a lot of hand and feet movements (of course because it's a dance) They also work on their vocals lessons which is also a good exercise for your voice and it also makes you breathe really hard when you hit a high note.
On Tuesday, we did hot seating in groups of 3-4, we asked open questions about themselves, an open question is answered with a long sentence or is not answered with a yes or no. 
Lhysette, Rieya and I were in a group and we came up with questions that we could ask the person who's going to answer it. We decided that Rieya will be going to be answering the questions, Lhysette and I are the people who're going to ask her the questions. She's not really feeling well so she sounded sick in the video. 

I can't put up the video and there's a video of us interviewing Rieya but there's an error so I put the Link

here.

Reflection: How does being physically active make you feel better? it helps you reduce the risk of having types of diseases, it makes you have a better body (a built body for example) or it makes you look healthy because you are healthy, being physically active makes you healthy.

My goal to be physically active: I should do morning exercises because I don't really exercise that much anymore
